Orphan Black is gearing up for what could be the most chaotic and brutal series finale of the year.
The BBC America series dropped a brand new synopsis for its last-ever season on Monday (May 8), teasing that the Clone Club will have to win an almighty battle if they hope to finally have freedom.
(Rachel and Sarah face off)
Here's how the final season is being promoted: "When we last saw Sarah, she'd been badly beaten in an epic physical battle against Rachel, that left her bruised and broken. Her foster mum, Mrs. S (Maria Doyle Kennedy), and daughter Kira (Skyler Wexler) were taken hostage and her sestra Cosima went missing.
"Now, Cosima, Alison, and their allies have been brought to heel. Even more harrowing is that Kira has joined them in surrender. Rachel, sitting at the head of the Neolution table, has carte blanche access to their clone biology, and with Helena pregnant with twins, her biology is the most coveted of all.
"Sarah in a desperate attempt to regain control, realises she must change tactics to pursue a long game. She, and those still able to fight, will uncover the missing pieces of the insidious conspiracy — and finally free themselves from the tyranny that has taken over their lives. Despite the great risk, the fight of her life will either set her and her sestras free, or see them meet their end."
What to Read Next
That sounded ominous, but the trailer below reveals that the Clone Club will absolutely be joining Sarah in her fight to take down Rachel:
Along with the regular characters (a half-dozen of whom are played by Primetime Emmy Award winner Tatiana Maslany), James Frain will be back as Rachel's frenemy Ferdinand Chevalier.
Felix will be getting another visit from his half-sister Adele (Lauren Hammersley), and newcomer Jenessa Grant (Reign) arrives as Cosima's only confidant in captivity.
Orphan Black's final season will premiere on June 10 at 10pm ET on BBC America in the US. Netflix carries the science fiction series in the UK.
